Chapter 73 Changing the script, Chi Yu's role problem

The character played by Wang Baoqiang is called Niu Geng.

Director and screenwriter Ye Weiwen believes that a milker should have the surname Niu, and his character must be as straightforward as his name.

Just like Zhang Pockmark, there must be pockmarks on his face.

Then this burdock's crow's mouth setting is also an important comedy setting in "People on Journey".

Interesting.

Like the following set of shots.

"Won't the front collapse?"

On the train, Wang Baoqiang rubbed his sleepy eyes and muttered something.

Then the train began to broadcast: "Passengers, please pay attention. There is a landslide one kilometer ahead of the railway, and the vehicle cannot move forward for the time being. Please prepare to get off the train in advance."

"Hey! What a collapse!"

Wang Baoqiang still had a happy face, and he didn't know what it meant to get off the car early.

"Shut your crow's mouth!"

Obviously, Xu Zheng, who played the role of Li Chenggong, was completely speechless from the time he took the plane but bought a fake ticket, and then encountered a landslide.

The name Li Chenggong is also a comedy setting.

Chi Yu read the whole script, he was in the toy business, he didn't become a pig in the wind, he found a young girl, and then she left him, and he didn't succeed all the way home.

The comic effect created by the contrast and conflict of names is still very direct and effective.

It is the same as Wang Baoqiang's crow's mouth setting, simple and efficient.

It is like a lead. When the audience hears Wang Baoqiang's words during the film screening, they can immediately get a message: there will be a reversal soon.

However, this reversal also means that the filming of the train scene is over.

Then get off the train and switch to the scene of the bus.

In the original series, only Xu Zheng, who called his wife, and Wang Baoqiang, who always kept up with him, were the only ones in the scene.

The others are the group performances of Wu Yang Wu Yang.

But Chi Yu's arrival made Ye Weimin change the script capriciously.

It hasn't changed much, for example, this scene is just a few shots of Chi Yu being pushed forward by the crowd.

Although there were many people, it was already a small scene for Ye Weimin to shoot this kind of scene.

After filming for more than two hours, there was no problem after repeated inspections. The crew bid farewell to the train and then came to the bus stop.

After filming the scene in front of the truck, it was already dark.

So I closed the show and started filming tomorrow.

In the evening, Chi Yu was called by Ye Weimin.

As for Su Aifei, her cameo role has been completed and she disappeared into the sea of ​​people.

Secondly, it was probably a group of old men in the past, and she is a girl, so it is not suitable for her to go.

Sure enough, when Chi Yu arrived, the two leading actors, Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiang, were there, and that guy, Old Zhao, was also there. There was no way, he was now half an assistant director, the unnamed one.

Ye Weimin was smoking a cigarette, shaking the script, and when he saw Chi Yu, he quickly pressed the button to extinguish the cigarette, smiling all over his face: "Chi Yu, do you have any thoughts about your role?"

Ye Weimin cut to the chase and got straight to the point.

When he was revising the script for the role of Chi Yu, the more he revised the script, the more he realized that, as Wang Baoqiang said, this role was optional.

It can even be said that it is a very embarrassing existence.

Obviously, just sitting there and amazed the time, and then contrasting Xu Zheng (also known as Li Chenggong)'s image of a lustful uncle with handsomeness, and Niu Geng's (also known as Wang Baoqiang)'s image of a simple and honest milkman, these two small dramas As a result, there is really no need to let Chiyu come.

If you invite a group performer from the past that you can tell about your appearance, you can do it.

But how does it fit into the plot?
Ye Weimin was in trouble.

Half of the deputy director Lao Zhao is not good at writing comedies.

In Xu Zheng's play, he kept refereeing wigs, which probably suppressed his IQ.

As for Wang Baoqiang?
He just needs to be quiet and make a scene.

So Ye Weimin asked Chi Yu, he knew that in the movie "Buried Alive", Chi Yu was also a screenwriter.

"Director Ye, to be honest, I don't have any ideas." Chi Yu said with a smile.

"No, it's already this time, let's stop covering it up, just talk about your understanding or feelings about the role you play as a cameo." Ye Weimin smiled and lit another cigarette.

Chi Yu doesn't smoke, and he can't object to others smoking.

"Director Ye, please borrow a cigarette. No, I don't smoke."

After thinking for a while, he reached out and asked Ye Weimin for a cigarette, which was Hua Zi, and then put it on the ashtray, pointed to this cigarette and a pile of other half-cut cigarette butts, and said, "Look, Ye Min, now It’s me, this cigarette, if you put it in this ashtray, everyone must think it’s inappropriate, right?”

Ye Weimin nodded, then frowned and began to think.

"What do you mean? Chi Yu wants to say that the two of us have been half-smoked? Or do you want to say that our movie is dusty, dirty and ugly, and he is too handsome to match his temperament?"

Wang Baoqiang asked.

Xu Zheng rolled his eyes: "Yes, you are the ugly one, but I'm just a little dusty and dirty."

"..."

Chi Yu wanted to explain, but he didn't mean it that way, so Xu Zheng said, "I don't want to explain, this guy is just playing up the atmosphere and pretending to be stupid on purpose."

Of course Wang Baoqiang is not stupid, whoever thinks he is stupid is really stupid.

At this time, Ye Weimin said, "Chi Yu, what you mean is that your character is too out of place in the whole movie and needs some modification."

"It's the same as this cigarette, or it's half smoked, or it's broken, such as getting wet with water, breaking it in your pocket, or falling on the ground and squashing it, right?"

Chi Yu nodded: "Yeah."

That's what it means, but Ye Weimin is also stuck on this point, he asked: "All of these solutions can be tried, but we need to find an exit as soon as possible."

Where is the exit?
If it's a drama movie, it's not that difficult to add a character.

However, this movie is a road movie, a comedy movie, so after adding a character, it is necessary to consider the significance he/she plays in the whole comedy session.

People don't need to be funny, but there must be something to laugh about, and there must be laughter.

"Come on, don't sit around stupidly, come up with ideas when you have to, and start filming the scene on the bus tomorrow. If you want to change Chi Yu's scene, you have to start with the bus."

As Ye Weimin said, he inserted another half of a cigarette into the ashtray.

A director is a director, and smoking is always only half smoked.

"How about embarrassing Chi Yu on the bus for a while?" Wang Baoqiang patted his head and said.

"Not good. The embarrassment of the two of you, or Xu Zheng's side, is already the main comedy conflict. If there is another character who is obviously very handsome but insists on being embarrassing, it will be a bit repetitive, and it may not be funny. fruit."

Ye Weimin directly vetoed his brain-slapping idea.

Sure enough, after being rejected, Wang Baoqiang retreated immediately, as if telling everyone that I had already made up my mind, even if it was a brick, I had already thrown it away.

It's just a chicken thief.

Xu Zheng also said: "Otherwise, what about adding a cleanliness setting to him? Uh, it's not good, the scene on the train didn't give this detail reminder. You talk first, and I'll think about it later."

After speaking, he also lit a cigarette.

Chi Yu went to open the window to let the air out, the room was already full of smog.

Old Zhao was playing with the matches in the hotel, looked at the flames that were about to burn out, and suddenly said: "I have an idea, how about we add a tragic setting to his role, so that the audience will laugh with tears, How about it?"

"..." Everyone was speechless.

Still laughing with tears, why not just write it to death, and then bury it alive?
It is worthy of being a thriller director to make a tragedy and kill people as soon as he makes a move.

Then, they all looked at Chi Yu.

One by one, only he, the director, had no idea.

"I don't have a specific idea, just a small idea."

Chi Yu opened his mouth and looked at the half-cut cigarettes in the ashtray. He had no idea, but he still had to say: "This movie is about Li Chenggong and Niu Geng's 'Lost Journey Home' along the way. Then the meaning of my role is naturally to make this 'embarrassing journey' more 'embarrassing', for example..."

Speaking of this, an idea suddenly appeared in Chi Yu's mind.

But this idea is stuck in his throat, and he can't get it out.
